Conservation joinery in Paisley
The hard part of Section Drawings for Consent in Paisley is not the making, it is the measuring. Given the sandstone tenements, Georgian New Town terraces and post-war housing schemes that dominates locally, standard sizes are the exception not the rule. With cold wet winters with strong westerly exposure in the mix, sash and case failure in tenement stock and cill decay at stone junctions is a question of when rather than whether. Where we put the effort is drawings detailed enough for a case officer to approve first time.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Tell us what you are working with and we will put a fixed figure in writing.
A local consideration we always raise: Scottish sash and case construction differs from English box sash and needs matching.

“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”

How long does a typical order take?
Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.
Is the timber certified?
All our stock is FSC certified and chain-of-custody documentation is supplied with the order, which most main contractors and specifiers now require for their records.
Do you take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
What if the opening is out of square?
Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
